hopIQ found 10 beers with the same hoppy and citrusy character as Passing Storm. Passing Storm is an alcohol-free take on the West Coast IPA, released in 2024. A classic pale grist keeps the malt in the background so the hops carry the beer, and it is double dry hopped with Simcoe, Citra and Centennial. The aroma shows grapefruit, lemon peel and pine resin with a light floral touch. A little malt sweetness sits under a clean, resinous bitterness, and the body is lighter than in a full-strength IPA. The finish is dry and bitter. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
